People value David as a thought partner because he asks deep, insightful questions that unlock new possibilities, drawing on decades of business experience.  David obtained an undergraduate degree in Physics from Westmont College and a master’s degree in Manufacturing Systems Engineering from Stanford University.  He had a 25 year career in software product management leadership where helped companies such as IDEO, eBay, Udemy, HP Enterprise, and Minted develop innovative and highly performant software platforms.  David is now providing business coaching, mentoring, and consulting services through Convene.

Even more importantly, David has a passion for bringing the wisdom and power of Jesus’s teachings to complex human and business problems.  David’s greatest joy is in seeing others grow and flourish as they take steps of faith.

As part of giving back to the community, David and his wife, Wendy, serve on the board of Oak Valley College.  They are also active members of the Sacramento Barnabas group helping non-profit ministries improve their effectiveness.  David and Wendy have three children that are launching into adulthood.
